That in 3 years after the passage of this legislation there will be an evaluation as to whether this is really solving the problem. Because a possible outcome is its not solving the problem and lets put more regulations in place or this is not working or maybe at that time there has been developments at the state level about making a division to exception or Something Like that to come back and look at the legislation. If im still around, i will be happy to reevaluate. Maybe this is a way to help that. Okay. So, commissioners, a couple things. So supervisor tang had, if we go with the department the health code legislation, shes proposed two amendments, correct, two amendments which are the requirement for the education be 500 hours so eliminating the 250 requirement and making the set standard of 500 hours and also to revoke a permit for 3 years from being able to reopen. Those are two things that will be amended in the Health Code Regulation and apart from that, other than than not h
Bit about whats going to take whether hospital or massage practitioners are going to be able to continue operating while they are complying and how much time are you proposing to give them. So sf govtv if i can just put the document on screen again. At the bottom you can see we are going to require that practitioner submit an application to dph permitting process within 90 days of the Effective Date of the ordinance. So you only have to submit it within 90 days. If we can complete the process, hopefully you can complete it as soon as possible but we are not going to penalize someone for not completing it within the 90 days. You just have to show a good faith effort. And we will allow those to continue in operation while on going this process. Our goal is to not put people out of business. Much of the process depends on the responsiveness of these other agencies, correct . Correct. We understand that. As long as the application is in within 90 days, the practitioner can continue his or
They had set certain types of businesses or types of businesses to be able to go through that expedite process. Currently massage is not in there. We are happy to continue that conversation, its not part of it right now. I think the larger picture with the Planning Department today in general is how is it that you are really better support the smaller businesses citywide across the industries. Thats something they have been looking at. They hired additional planners, like a dozen of them and they have programs for small types of businesses that maybe dont have to go through commissions. So im very interested in looking forward to that bigger conversation where again, massage would be included as part of that. The second issue is that you spoke about in terms of outreach in making sure people are aware of this proposal for conditional use process. This has been the process for many many years until 731 came into place. The other thing i want to highlight about it is that our Office Actu

Legislate because its a contractual agreement. Is that enough time to get all the permitting done . Just to submit the application. So there is no limit. This is my question, so how much time do they have to actually, they turn it in in 90 days but if it takes an entire year to get a cu, they are still able to operate senate 2ksh at that time . We hope it doesnt take a year, but our goal is to get people efficiently through this. Okay. Any other commissioner comments . I had just a question supervisor. You mentioned 200, you had an outreach to 200 establishments. So there are 250 in the city licensed establishments . Roughly at least in the data base they have. They could have been permitted through dph or filed an exemption because they were cmtc certified. Its a mix of the two. Obviously weve been communicating at the mail with the stakeholders. But we did try our best. If they want part of this discussion through a mailed letter to these businesses. How many licensed individual prac
